The Back-Talk Organ Trio at Le Petit Chicago

Read "The Back-Talk Organ Trio at Le Petit Chicago" reviewed by Mark Sabbatini

by Mark Sabbatini

Read "Rebekka Bakken: Dusseldorf, Germany, March 17, 2011" reviewed by Phillip Woolever

by Phillip Woolever

Rebekka BakkenZakkDusseldorf, GermanyMarch 17, 2011 After singer Rebekka Bakken ignited an intimate evening before a comfortably snug, sold out gathering of 303 counted customers, it seemed that--promotionally at least---she's been characterized with too soft an edge.
